2022 Le Serre Nuove Tenuta dell´Ornellaia Toskana 0,75l

Le Serre Nuove dell’Ornellaia is the second wine of one of Bolgheri’s most iconic estates, offering a more approachable expression of Ornellaia’s signature style without losing its depth or character. Made from Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc, it combines coastal Tuscan elegance with impressive structure and immediate charm. It’s a superb introduction to the world of Ornellaia, with the pedigree and finesse to age gracefully.

Tasting Notes
The 2022 vintage pours a deep, ruby-toned red with inviting concentration in the glass. On the nose, it opens with dark cherry, blackberry, and plum, layered with tobacco, herbs, and a subtle spicy edge. The palate is full-bodied, smooth, and precise, with silky tannins and juicy, ripe fruit at the core. Notes of licorice, cocoa, and Mediterranean herbs add complexity, while the finish is long, harmonious, and elegantly composed. Thanks to its structure and balance, it has excellent aging potential, though it is already highly enjoyable now.

Production
Sourced from Tenuta dell’Ornellaia’s 97 hectares near the Tuscan coast in Bolgheri, the wine benefits from a maritime climate, abundant sunshine, and a diverse mix of soils that help shape its layered profile. The grapes are selectively hand-harvested and vinified separately to preserve the character of each variety before blending. The final wine is matured for 15 months in French barriques, 25% of which are new, followed by 6 months of bottle aging. This approach is designed to bring together freshness, elegance, and depth with earlier drinkability than the estate’s flagship wine.

Food & Serving
This is a natural match for grilled or roasted beef, lamb, venison, and hearty pasta dishes such as ragù. It also works beautifully with aged hard cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C; decanting for around 1 hour is recommended, especially if enjoyed in its youth.

Producer
Tenuta dell’Ornellaia was founded in 1981 by Lodovico Antinori and has become one of the defining estates of Bolgheri. Now owned by the Frescobaldi family, it is known for crafting some of Tuscany’s most admired Bordeaux-style wines, combining coastal terroir with meticulous winemaking. Le Serre Nuove has earned its place as a respected second wine, reflecting the estate’s quality and style in a more accessible form.
